Florence Mutesi of The New Times (Kigali)

"The number of people living with HIV/AIDS has reduced from 191,437 in 2006 to184,859 in 2007, a United Nations General Assembly Special Session (UNGASS) country progress report has said.

The report was presented Wednesday to a forum of NGOs at Alpha Palace Hotel. It was to show NGOs what was achieved and exchange ideas on the findings. It says that despite the decrease, the percentage of young women infected with HIV remains high and has continued to increase."
